The Ice Festival in Yorkville is another way to celebrate the winter in our city. Stroll around the park and see the wonderful ice sculptures showcased by talented and experienced artists. It takes them only one hour per block of ice but they know what they are doing! New stores have recently opened, including Starbucks right on the park.

We need to bundle up due to the freezing temperatures that are reaching the ones in the moon. Toronto can get to -40C and the moon is only -54C so we are not that far apart!

We might as well enjoy the winter activities in the city. It is usually quite nice, calm and beautiful the scenery right after a snow storm. Great for taking the dog for a walk, the kids tobogganing or just getting fresh air. Leaside as many other neighbourhoods have plenty of fantastic areas to enjoy and they are just around the corner.
